A selection device for pruning machines, for selecting branches or sprouts for pruning, which is performed by said pruning machine;

• said selection device comprises:
• at least one fixing portion configured to removably fix to a pruning machine;
• at least one actuator device exerting a force upon said branches and sprouts, to move said branches and sprouts so as to cause the branches or sprouts selected for pruning to be arranged in correspondence to cutting elements provided in the pruning machine, to at least partially preserve other branches or sprouts from the pruning;
• a first frame at least partially supporting said at least one actuator device;
• at least one regulating mechanism, which is fixed to said first frame, is associated with at least one actuator device to regulate at least the direction along which a force is exerted by at least one actuator device associated therewith;
• wherein said at least one actuator device comprises pushing elements for exerting a pushing force to move the branches or sprouts to be preserved from pruning, to arrange the branches or sprouts to be pruned in correspondence to the cutting elements of the pruning machine.
